    How is this technique done?

    Oh jeez. I didn't realize it was that intricate. Kind of deters me from trying it out myself. I have no idea where to even begin with something like that.

    How is this technique done?

    Hey folks. I hope it's okay to ask stuff like this here. I've been trying to wrap my head around how people do certain designs inside of soap and this one has been hurting my head. Would appreciate someone more experienced explaining it to me! If anyone knows of a place that offers tutorials on...

    Canadian equivalent to Mad Micas?

    Hey folks. Been trying for forever to find some brilliant micas to use in my soaps. My local supplier has a very limited and underwhelming selection. I love the Mad Micas collection, but shipping costs are crazy and dealing with customs is a pain. Does anyone have a recommendation? I'm trying...

    Soap looked like it had glycerin rivers and some sticky, syrupy substance?

    Yeah, I'm super new to soaping. I've had maybe 5 attempts so far, only 2 of which that actually worked out lol. I'm not sure how safe this soap is to use because beyond the (what I think is) glycerin rivers, it also had a sticky liquid on the side of it that I'm not sure of. I don't think it's...

    Soap looked like it had glycerin rivers and some sticky, syrupy substance?

    I used 2 oz of the FO I linked in a 37 oz recipe. SAO is sweet almond oil. I did not do a water discount for my colorants, no. I wasn't aware that was a thing. They're oil soluble if that makes any difference?

    Soap looked like it had glycerin rivers and some sticky, syrupy substance?

    I, unfortunately, did not take a picture and have no access to the soaps right now to show you guys, but when I cut into soap with an accelerated FO, it had an almost syrupy liquid stuck to the side of it and what looked like glycerin rivers. I believe this soap also overheated because I had...

    Advice on getting rid of that "squeaky clean" feeling?

    Yup! That's where I got the recipe from. Followed her creative academy recipe initially, but I didn't like the feel of it. I'll be patient with this batch and see where it goes. Looking forward to editing it eventually and making it my own, though. :)

    Advice on getting rid of that "squeaky clean" feeling?

    Appreciate all the replies btw. I'll let the soap cure for longer and do another batch for now with less CO.

    Advice on getting rid of that "squeaky clean" feeling?

    Hey folks. Been lurking for a while and decided to make my first post. I'm extremely new to soapmaking, made my first successful batch about a week and some change ago. Grabbed a small scrap of it to test at home today and, while it bubbles and smells great, it gives that tight, squeaky feeling...
